Cape Town — uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party head of Presidency, Magasela Mzobe, confirmed that the party’s secretary general, Floyd Shivambu, and Member of Parliament (MP), Duduzile Zuma-Sambudla, were not at loggerheads with each other.
Mzobe’s comments come following following reports that Shivambu and Zuma-Sambudla were not seeing eye-to-eye with each other and some social media users claimed that Shivambu was set to be replaced by Duduzane Zuma, Zuma-Sambudla’s twin brother and Jacob Zuma’s son, IOL reported.
Mzobe took to X and dismissed all rumours about the internal squabbles and explained that Zuma-Sambudla and Shivambu were both crucial members of the party.
“Commanders and ground forces of the MK Party stay focused on the task. Comrade Floyd, the SG of the MK Party, is NOT going anywhere. He remains a trusted SG by President Zuma and the organisation,” he said.
“Comrade Duduzile is going nowhere, too; she remains a trusted part of the leadership collective of the MK Party. The social media hype created to confuse MK Party members must be ignored. Both comrades are very close to me and are crucial to the growth of MK Party as we prepare for 2026 Local Government Elections,” Mzobe added.
